Hi John,
Well, I'm obviously not a doctor but please see my post above:
Sometimes coming off it seems like a necessary evil. It's always a bit unpleasant and it makes you feel a bit rubbish, but really, if you don't get over the 'cold turkey' in a few days and continue to feel ill then it's best to go back to the doc and slow it down.
Doctors seem always to be a bit too willing to reduce medication with WG. It always seems to take a little bit more than they think is the right amount.
I don't know what your original symptoms were, but 30mg at diagnosis doesn't seem like a very high dose to me. I think most people seem to start on 60+. If you're getting symptoms recurring when you try to reduce, my unqualified opinion would be that your doctor might want to think again.
